Datadog vs Raygun in Summary

Datadog is incumbent Enterprise Observability tool with broad capabilities and a high price tag, while Raygun is a growing player in that space with a lot of specialization for .NET. Datadog will be more useful for DevOps teams at large companies, while Raygun is useful for .NET organizations that have a smaller operational budget. For a lower-cost alternative focused on small teams for frontend error tracking, consider TrackJS.
